We are a family of three, Stephen, Ioana and Lydia, slowly building a sanctuary on the side of a mountain in the foothills of the French Pyrenees, between the villages of Bugarach and Bezu. The main house is now very comfortable, with six bedrooms, a movement studio and meditation room, and a wonderful orchard under development and a variety of outside spaces growing apace. We are looking for 2 or 3 people to come, work, and enjoy living here with us for a week at a time (no single workawayers please). We have our hands pretty full looking after our 20 month old daughter at the moment, however we are an architect and philosopher by training and inclination and can be guaranteed to engage all who come here in pretty direct conversation. if you appreciate some quiet in you life we will be happy to share it with you.

We are a children's center in a small village South of Cairo on the Nile. It is a free service to the village that has high illiteracy. We have about 900 sqm of garden that we grow organically. About 70 children come to the center that serves as kindergarten and after school center for various activities. We can accommodate but are not self-sufficient in regards of food yet in our garden so we would like volunteers who could provide their own food. We encourage the children to teach each other. Language is not a problem for volunteers.

Ciao, we are a family of 5, three cats and an old dog. We live in San Pancrazio, in a red house 6 kilometres far from Lucca. We are peaceful and easygoing, the girls (7, 5 and 3 y.o.) love being with people and make new friends. We need a little help with the girls when they come back from school in the afternoon and during the evenings when we are at work. Our red house is in a "corte" in the country in a nice place calm and quiet. We have just moved here so we are doing some works in the garden and in the little land we have. You can easily reach a little town near our house by bike or if you take the cycling lane you can easily reach Lucca in 25 minutes.

Come and experience life on a working cattle property. We run 600 head of cattle on 730 Ha set in a beautiful valley. Work around the property includes tasks such as mustering, stock work in the cattle yards, fencing and machinery and vehicle maintenance. We rely on 4WD motor bikes and tractors for many tasks and will take the time to train you how to use these safely. Apart from farm work, we also look for help in our garden and vegetable garden as well as odd jobs in and around the house.

I'm a former repairer and designer with a vast amount of experience in building and rebuilding properties. I live together with my Ukrainian wife (a teacher for Russian, Ukrainian, German and English) in a remote village in between Sewastopol and Yalta, located in the beautiful mountains and surrounded by nature and quietness. All the best sight seeing attractions on the Crimea are within 50km from where we live. We are a German and Russian speaks Family. Due to a work related illness I have lost some function in my hands, which means that I can still show other people how to do some of the necessary works, but am not able to fulfil them myself long term. Ich bin ein ehemaliger Restaurator mit viel Erfahrung im Um und Ausbau von Häusern und lebe sei 8 Jahren mit meiner ukrainischen Ehefrau und unseren zwei Töchtern in einem kleinen Dorf auf der Krim. Zwischen Sewastopol und Yalta in herrlichen Bergen. Bei uns bekommen sie Anschluß an Familie, Freunde und ukrainische Kultur. Wir werden gemeinsam arbeiten und alle anfallenden Fragen auch gemeinsam entscheiden. Ich suche für 1-2 Monaten einen Praktikanten der wirklich lernen will. Bei gegenseitigem Gefallen können es auch 1-2 Jahre werden. Was kann man machen um ein gutes, praktisches, ökologisches Haus zu bauen? -wie muss man ein Grundstück mit Haus planen, ganzheitlich, denn alle Einzelheiten bedingen einander -wie kommt man zu einem fast geschlossenen Wasserkreislauf -wie plant/baut man eine Abwasserbehandlung und integriert diese in das Gesamtkonzept des Grundstückes -wie baut man einen Brunnen und wie verlegt man Wasserleitungen -wie baut man einen Ziegelofen, der das ganze Haus beheizt und das Wasser erwärmt und wie kann man das mit einer Solaranlage kombinieren -was ist wichtig, was unnötig bei der Wärmedämmung -warum gibt es Schimmel in den Ecken moderner Häuser Sämtliche Bauwerkzeuge und Spezialgeräte habe ich und alles funktioniert ausgezeichnet. Nur leider funktionieren meine Hände nicht mehr so recht. Deswegen suche ich junge Leute die bei mir etwas lernen WOLLEN und mir helfen das Haus fertig zu bauen.
